Hi I about to buy myself a Yeti... Yay! But I'm not sure of the sizes due to conflicting reports about the sizes for the ASR range being on the largish?? Is this true? I'm 192cm tall (6'4"ish) Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers Jez

You'll need at least a large. I'd say XL.

Thanks Andrew, The bike I'm riding now is an XL but has similar geometry to the L Yeti ASR-C / ASR-5C. -On second look I think the L Yeti is actually biger than the XL Avanti! My bike geometry (sizes in mm, and inches): I am concerned that the XL Yeti would be too big (i.e. too LONG) for me? I found the below sizing for the Yeti AS-R 5 below: (I presume the geom/sizing is the same for the AS-R Carbon too?) FWIW: I currently use a 70mm stem on my Avanti.. Does anyone have any experience to share on the sizes of the Yeti ASR-5C? Cheers Jez

At 6ft I was pushing the max height for a medium. If you've compared sizing, then sounds like you'd want the large.
Dirt magazine recently had a test, I think the guy was 6ft2 and I know he rides a large.

Thanks for that. -Hey were you riding an AS-R Carbon or the AS-R 5 Carbon? -Is there any difference other than the rear travel?
Thanks Again Jez

5 carbon.
Not sure on ASR-c sizing. Saw one at weekend and looked similar to 5, but more XC geo.
